Throws Back the Curtain; The Human Experiment: Understanding Cloning and Stem Cell Research.
As this issue of NRL News illustrates perfectly, there is immense interest in and controversy over human stem cell research and cloning.
The battle is being waged in the media, in state legislatures, even in the United Nations. (See story, page one.)
There is a new resource for pro-lifers that thoughtfully explains the cloning debate and stem cell technology. The documentary, The Human Experiment: Understanding Cloning and Stem Cell Research, is a perfect resource both to educate yourself and anyone else who finds themselves bewildered by the conflicting claims.
The DVD quickly and clearly explains what is at stake. Financed with a donation from Vincent Fortanasce, M.D., and California's Physicians for Compassionate Care, the DVD provides interviews with many of the nation's leading pro-life and scientific experts in this field.
That list includes Wesley Smith; NRLC President Wanda Franz, Ph.D.; Joni Eareckson Tada; Richard Doerflinger; NRLC Director of Education Randall K. O'Bannon, Ph.D.; Rex Greene, M.D., and with many others. And best of all, each explanation is as clear as it is compelling.
There is a very useful overview in The Human Experiment: Understanding Cloning and Stem Cell Research of adult stem cells, which are found in a person's own body or in umbilical cords or placentas. You actually see how they are extracted from umbilical cords.
The film was originally produced in California in preparation for the recent "Prop 71" battle in which proponents of human stem cell research and cloning prevailed. More than $3 billion will be poured into government-sponsored cloning and embryonic research projects.
